I'm a mathematician, and I enjoy studying geometric and algebraic structures inspired from physics.
My research interests include:
Topological quantum field theories (TQFTs)
Complex Chern-Simons theory, $q$-series invariants of 3-manifolds, quantum groups, and categorification
Topological string theory and skein-valued count of holomorphic curves
Complex Morse theory (Picard-Lefschetz theory), resurgence, Landau-Ginzburg models, and algebra of the infrared
Foam evaluation and link homologies
Skein modules and their generalizations, factorization and blob homology
Since July 2023, I'm a Benjamin Peirce Fellow (postdoc) at Harvard University, mentored by Prof. Dan Freed and supported in part by Simons Collaboration on Global Categorical Symmetries.
Previously, I was a postdoc at UT Austin from August 2022 to May 2023.
I got my PhD in Mathematics in June 2022 at Caltech, where I studied quantum topology and physical mathematics under the supervision of Prof. Sergei Gukov.
